Now there's recorded proof that it actually happens. A video of Calgary Police Service cruisers doing just that is getting thousands of views on YouTube but not a lot of favourable sentiments from police brass, who vow to bite through the glaze and find out who was behind the wheels of two marked cruisers and a third unmarked car caught in a rush for sugary treats.

When the light turns green, the two cars dart from the line with one managing a considerable lead. A speedometre reading on the video shows the two cars never seem to break the speed limit and goes on to show the two police cruisers taking different entrances into the Timmy's parking lot.
